"Now that everyone has arrived, this time I invite you to come over to talk about the case of the collective disappearance of the high-level leaders of the Forestry Association a while ago. Pen, fun, pavilion www.biquge.info" prefect Li Zhenyi said in a deep voice.

"I have sent a good hand to collect information on this matter and investigate it carefully. Chief soldier Yuan Xu said coldly. "The murderer will be brought to justice!"

"I'm afraid that the murderer is not human. Bai Feng Dao said slowly. looked at Lu Sheng on the side, "In this regard, please talk about the troubles in the first place." The Red Whale Gang is the leader of the Northland, and the Shilin Society is still subservient to it, so there must be clues. ”

"What if it's a person, what if it's not a person?" Lu Sheng said lightly.

"If it's a person, it's under the control of the general army, if it's not, then it's under the supervision department. The Inspectorate has recently brought in a number of highly qualified personnel. The chief soldier smiled.

Bai Feng Lao Dao didn't refute it, just watched how Lu Sheng answered.

Lu Sheng's eyes narrowed, thinking of the order issued by the Zhen family before, he suddenly had a premonition, and the Supervision Department suddenly jumped out, it is very likely that other families or forces want to test the Zhen family through such means and participate in this matter.

"It's just a martial artist in the next place, and it's not clear what the specific situation is, these are all taken over by the old gang leader himself. He snorted.

"Even the capital outside the road is not clear, so who else knows?"

"Anyway, we haven't received any news about this matter, and if the Supervision Department wants to investigate carefully, I am willing to actively cooperate. Lu Sheng said with a smile. "If you can find out anything, please let us know in time so that we can prepare. ”

"Isn't it that there was a business conflict with the Red Whale Gang before the Forest Association...", an old man at the bottom couldn't help but whisper.

"En?" Lu Sheng's eyes widened, and the old man was suddenly frightened, and he quickly lowered his head and didn't dare to say more.

The leader of the Red Whale Gang is not soft-hearted, but killed. In terms of real power, the three sects and nine streams in the city must return to Lu Shengguan, it can be said that he has a word, and his influence is second only to that of the prefect Li Zhenyi, which is why the yamen specially came to him.

"This government invited the head of the road to come, one is because the head of the road is the first master along the mountain city, and his strength is extraordinary. When Li Zhenyi said this, the old white breeze on the side faintly showed a smile but not a smile.

"The second is to ask the head of the road to assist in the investigation of the forest-related case. Li Zhenyi and the rest of the people pretended not to see Lao Dao's face and continued.

"Coordination is natural, it's just ....." Lu Sheng didn't finish his words.

"Report !!"

Suddenly, an official outside hurriedly ran in.

"Lord Qiyu, all seventy-two people in the three more gates in the south of the city were killed, and the bodies were found in the courtyard well!"

"What?!" Li Zhenyi's face changed, and he stood up suddenly.

Lu Sheng's heart sank, although the three more doors are not big, but they are under the command of the Zhen family with the Red Whale Gang, and they are very good at exploring intelligence, and their importance is second only to the Red Whale Gang.

"Looks like you're in trouble. Bai Feng Lao Dao looked at Lu Sheng and said with a faint smile.

"Haunting and trouble, don't worry about it. Lu Sheng probably guessed that there were other forces standing behind the other party, and he still had a trace of expectation for the imperial court before, but it was gone at this time.

The Red Whale Gang is like a big ship that may capsize at any time, and at this time, everyone wants to come and get a piece of the pie.

"Sanyu is my ally, if something happens to them, I will go to investigate first, and a few will leave. Since he saw that the official's attitude was useless, Lu Sheng didn't waste any time, and got up directly to say goodbye.

"If the head of the road is interested, he can consider joining my supervision department, and maybe there are one or two back roads. Behind him, there was a persuasion from Bai Feng's old way.

Lu Shengli ignored it, turned around and left. Judging from this sentence, the Supervision Department must have known the current predicament of the Red Whale Gang.

If the Red Fang is really attacked, a high-level person like him will definitely not let it go, not to mention that he has killed many ghosts in the Red Fang before, burned a painting boat, and has a personal vendetta first. So this so-called solicitation is just talking.

"Or they couldn't be sure that the Zhen family would leave before, but as soon as the matter of Sanyumen came, they were quickly affirmed. Lu Sheng understood in his heart that the attitude of this imperial court was also to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and it was impossible to participate in the war, let alone help the Red Whale Gang, and it would be good if he didn't fall into the ground.

Out of the backyard of the yamen, Xu Chui and the two came up.

"Outside, where are you going now?"

"You guys go back to help!" Lu Sheng said calmly, "I'll go find someone." ”

"My lord, don't you need us to follow?" Ning San wondered.

"No need. Lu Sheng waved his hand. Now that the situation is urgent, Hongfang is pressing step by step, and it is necessary to hurry as soon as possible.

As he spoke, he turned over and got into the carriage, and asked Xu Fuining and the three to find the carriage by themselves. He went to the location of the three more gates alone.

Because it is in the city, the headquarters where Sanyumen is located is a large courtyard.

There was a circle of officials around the periphery to isolate those who wanted to enter.

Lu Sheng looked at it from a distance outside, and before he could get closer, he smelled a thick rancid smell. There is a faint trace of yin qi in it.

"Sure enough, those things did it....", his face was gloomy.

"From this point of view, Hongfang is not sure that the Zhen family has completely left, so it is still trying, perhaps because he is worried about the backhand, and first cut it off from the peripheral forces.

In this case, I don't have much time....." Lu Sheng only briefly glanced at the courtyard of the headquarters of more than three gates, and then turned to leave.

He first found Chen Jiaorong in the city, borrowed his jade pendant and played with it for a while, and secretly dripped blood to absorb the yin qi on it.

Then I went to the Good Treasure Hall again, but unfortunately I still couldn't find a new Yin Qi item. In the end, I had to contact Zhuo Wenyu.

It's a pity that after the flesh and blood used for communication were burned, Zhuo Wenyu still didn't come.

Lu Sheng waited at the agreed place for more than an hour, but there was still no trace of him. Only then did he have no choice but to return.

The only yin qi he got was the jade pendant in Chen Jiaorong's hand.

What made him a little relieved was that although the Yin Qi content of the Jade Perry was not enough to improve the Nine Evil Martial Arts of the Red Pole, it was still enough to improve the hard skills of the two layers of the Qi Force.

In the next few days, Lu Sheng knew that the Red Whale Gang was the main target, and it was difficult for him to escape, so he concentrated all his energy on cultivating the Treasure Pile Gong.

And Yulianzi also kept coming from there.

A small town of the Red Whale Gang also had an accident, dozens of people were killed and injured, and only a few people who were on a mission outside happened to escape with their lives and came back to report the news.

Then, a few days later, there was no news of another stronghold in the mining area, and the gang sent people to investigate, and a foreign envoy who led the team, together with thirteen good men, all sank into the sea and never returned.

Lu Sheng only practiced in the casino for about ten days, and the situation took a sharp turn for the worse.

With the Red Whale Gang as the center, dozens of miles around, it seems to have become a forbidden area, and all the Red Whale Gang people will disappear immediately once they go out of this range.

After another two days, Lu Sheng settled his relatives and did not allow them to leave the city, and he responded to Hong Mingzi's move and went straight to the Red Whale with his men.

***************

The white smoke on the incense burner is straight and transparent.

On the dark red carved bed, Hong Mingzi was half-lying on the pillow, and his body exuded a strong smell of medicine.

There were two people standing in the bedroom, a man and a woman, both in their thirties and forties, and their appearance was somewhat similar to Hong Mingzi. The temperament is also the temperament of a person in power like a superior. It is the two remaining sons and daughters of Hong Mingzi.

Lu Sheng sat in front of the bed, quietly looking at the weak senior brother, waiting for him to speak.

Hong Mingzi took a sip of medicine under his daughter's service, coughed a few times, turned his face, and looked at Lu Sheng. "Senior brother, I want you to come over this time, I want to... I'll ask you something. ”

"Senior brother, please speak. Lu Sheng Zhengse said, these days Hong Mingzi is haggard, most of his life's foundation is so easy to face collapse, the weight of his heart is unbearable, plus he is not in good health, and finally fell ill.

"I'm getting old..... Whether it's the Red Sun Gate, or the Red Whale Gang.... I can't control it...."Hong Mingzi coughed.

"Today, I will pass on the position of the master of the Red Sun Gate to you. As for the position of the helper, if you want to be it, then give it to you, if you don't want it, then give it up, and I will pass it on to Chen Ying. ”

"Daddy!" The two children on the side suddenly looked a little unswerving.

"Don't interrupt!" Hong Mingzi scolded violently, and under the accumulation of power, the two of them trembled and did not dare to speak again.

"Senior brother, I don't know what to do?" After scolding his children, he looked at Lu Sheng again.

"Zhen family, is it really gone?" Lu Sheng thought for a while and asked again.

"Yes, people went to the empty building, and no one was left. Hong Mingzi smiled bitterly.

When the two people on the side heard this, their faces turned pale instantly, and before they could reply, Lu Sheng said in a slow and deep voice.

"Okay, I'll take it, help me, I'll take it too. ”

"Hahaha!!Okay!!" Hong Mingzi was suddenly overjoyed, he couldn't see Lu Sheng's strength clearly, and now he must have surpassed him. may be able to lead the Red Whale Gang to fight a way out.

"I have prepared a team, as long as the junior brother dresses up, takes my two unfilial sons, and goes straight to the Central Plains, I have arranged a total of thirteen teams together..."

"Senior brother. Let's convene a meeting. Lu Sheng said suddenly. "It's useless, run now, the situation collapses faster. ”

Hong Mingzi's voice came to an abrupt end.

.............

"From today on, the position of the helper is located outside my junior brother Lusheng Road. ”

In the huge red whale hall, Hong Mingzi coughed and loudly amplified his voice with internal strength.

Lu Sheng sat on the throne of the gang leader, his face was calm, and he listened to the old gang leader Hong Mingzi carefully read the big rules of the gang.

The rules and oaths are all regulations that were set when the gang was first established.

The high-level officials below were in an uproar, and there was a lot of discussion among themselves. Someone got up and wanted to question, but they hesitated when they remembered the headless cases that had been appearing recently.

Chen Ying stood aside, his face worried, not knowing what he was thinking.

The master of ceremonies stepped forward carefully and handed the red jade short sword representing the gang leader to Hong Mingzi. The old gang leader pulled out the short sword and handed the hilt to Lu Sheng with his backhand.

The sound in the main hall was noisy at first, but as the ceremony continued, it became quieter and quieter.

Gradually, everyone's eyes looked at Lu Sheng, who was sitting at the top.

"The righteousness of the red whale, for the courage and faith, for the benevolence and righteousness, for the righteousness, for the tranquility, the nine generations of gang leaders once said: for the evil, show the will of heaven ....."

Click.

Suddenly, outside the door of the main hall, there was a crisp crackling sound.

Suddenly, all the high-level officials, internal and external envoys, and elders looked towards the gate. The chief of the guard led people out from the side to check the situation with a cold face.

The master of ceremonies paused and continued to read the inauguration ceremony declaration.

“...... The gold and stone are not rotten, this scene will not be destroyed, the red whale is under the ice ocean, there is no disadvantage, its body is a hundred zhang huge, its shape is like a drop of jade...."

Click.

There was another clear, piercing crunch.

"Someone, go find out what's going on?!" Chen Ying's face became gloomy. He arranged the defense work, and it was his responsibility if something happened.

"What about Ren Tao who went out just now?!" he scolded sharply.

The people below looked at each other.

Chen Ying's voice was transmitted with internal strength, and the guards guarding outside the main hall could hear it clearly, and they would quickly enter the door to reply.

But at this time, there was no sound outside the door.

"Guards, where are the guards!? Chen Ying shouted.

There was no sound outside the main hall, and there was silence.

"This...."

The complexions of many high-level officials began to change.

These days, everyone is in a panic, and some smart people probably guessed the trouble crisis behind it.

It's just that what everyone didn't expect was that at the handover ceremony of this gang leader, there could be something wrong.

"Go out and have a few people. Chen Ying ordered, his face was hard to see.

Click!

In an instant, there was another crisp sound.

The entire hall fell silent all of a sudden, and everyone stared at the stone door of the main hall.

An elder with a hot temper and bold enough snorted coldly, got up and led people towards the side door. He took three people out with him.

Then, there is no then.

After just a few breaths, there was no movement at all, not even the sound of footsteps.

Someone shouted out at the side doorway, but no one responded.

The air fell silent, and then the whole hall began to panic, and the sound buzzed, and some people drew their swords one after another.

"Quiet!quiet!!" Chen Ying roared, trying to stabilize everyone's emotions, but to no avail. There was a look of horror and bewilderment on everyone's faces.

"Ladies and gentlemen.... Please listen to the old man..."Hong Mingzi stood up tremblingly and tried to calm everyone's emotions. But it was no use again.

The master of ceremonies' face was pale, and the shoulder armor of the gang leader in his hand was also trembling violently, almost unstable, his whole body was trembling, and the shoulder armor in his hand was even more selected in mid-air, which could fall down at any time.

Lu Sheng was expressionless, sat on the main seat, and let the master of ceremonies wear it for him.

The delicate red jade shoulder armor was placed on his left shoulder several times, and it all slipped down.

Click!!

With a third crisp sound, the door of the main hall finally opened slowly.....

The people in the entire hall were silent for an instant as if they were being pinched by their throats.

Hee-hee-hee....

A sharp and strange laugh of a woman came from the crack in the dark door.

Syllable.

Lu Sheng reached out and grabbed the palm of the master of ceremonies, and pressed the fiery red shoulder armor firmly on his shoulder.

Looking at a red shoe slowly stepping in through the crack in the door, he slowly got up from the throne.
